When Marcie met Jason Maddox, she couldn't believe her luck. Becoming Jason's second wife catapulted her into the elite world of high society. But underneath the polite, old money manners, she knows she'll always be an outsider, and her hard-won life hangs by a thread.
Then Jason's widowed boss brings back a new wife from his trip to London. Young, beautiful, reckless - nobody can take their eyes off Keisha. Including Jason.
Marcie refuses to be replaced so easily. People would kill for her life of luxury. What will Marcie do to keep it?

'Dead to Her is an absolute blinder of a read, possibly my favourite of hers yet and that's saying something.
